Jake meets 'Gi-Gi' Lorle Schmidt...

Yesterday I got to meet my great grandmother Lorle.
She told me to call her 'Gi-Gi'.
'My dad did WHAT? when he was my age?'

'I am going to be able to get away with ANYTHING

with a face like this and stories like those from Gi-Gi.'

Daddy was so excited for his grandma to meet Jake.
It's official, Jake has been inducted into the Schmidt Hall of Fame.

Jake tastes rice cereal...

Jake tried real food for the first time.
We got him all set up with his favorite bib.
He made some funny faces, but seemed to like the concept.
Hey, I might like this new stuff.
...maybe not. Maybe I just liked the spoon.
Rice Cereal of the bottle...which shall I choose?I think I liked the bottle better.
I think I will stick with my toes.
I am sure mom will try again tomorrow...
